The book lays stress on the significance of infection control with the help of valuable information. Due to Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI) growing worldwide, they have become a serious problem for medical practitioners. It causes an increase in morbidity, death rate and hospitalization period for patients. Furthermore, it brings financial burden on the patient, health care set up and State and National Health Care System. 5 to 10% of patients on an average, in hospitals in developed countries are suffering from HAI. However, nearly 30% of these infections are preventable by following the infection control practices properly, especially maintaining proper hand hygiene while attending patients. Therefore, this book stresses on the necessity of Infection Control practices, and also highlights the growing trends of HAI due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter species etc.
